"Attentive, knowledgeable, organized, competent and kind. Peter was a tireless and helpful birding guide who took care to make sure people "got on the bird". He is clearly an expert on birds and on East Anglia birding sites. He also dealt well with the little sunroof crisis at the beginning of the trip. He is also good at helping one choose which beers to sample, and patiently answers questions, questions, so many questions." B.M. 2013
